Lost Maples Winery, Vanderpool

Lost Maples Winery is located on the Polvadeau Vineyards nestled in the Sabinal Canyon along the Sabinal River in Bandera County , Texas. It is graced by mountains and crystal clear springs that feed into the Sabinal River. The winery and vineyard are making excellent use of the land held in the Polvado family since land grants were issued ('Polvadeau' is the original spelling of 'Polvado'. It is of French origin.). We are the first commercial winery and commercial vineyard in Bandera County located 65 plus miles northwest of San Antonio, TX, on Highway 187 approximately 1 mile south of Lost Maples Park .

At the Polvadeau Vineyards, we grow Black Spanish Lenoir Grapes, which were originally brought over from Spain into Mexico and Texas by missionaries in order to make communion wine. This grape has been around for hundreds of years and has survived droughts, cold winters, and floods. Today, the Black Spanish Lenoir Grape is making a name for itself with our award-winning wines.

We cordially invite you to stop in, draw up a chair, relax and enjoy some of the best wines the Texas Hill Country has to offer. Tastings cost $10 for generous pourings of six of our wines. The conversation is free, and we often provide live music on the weekends. We're open Wednesday through Sunday 1 p.m. to 6 p.m. but, on Tuesdays, if you see the gate open, you're welcome to stop on by!

Cute little boutique winery, friendly people, great wine & cheese plate. We really enjoyed several of their wines, including the Vin Ultra & Symphonique. Look forward to our next visit!

We were camping and stopped by Lost Maples Winery because we saw it on the way. This was such a gem and treasure to find on our route. We did the flights, tasting every wine was incredible. Every wine was so full of flavor. We had the most amazing cheese plate that rivals any restaurant . We had a one-on-one discussion with the winemaker. We went outside to listen to the band that was playing on the patio, they were great. To top it off the owner went by every table and poured a glass of wine from their new Reserve that's being released. They have a beautiful little pond and they gave me fish food to feed the little fish. This place is truly magical. This winery rivaled some of the best wineries I've visited all over the world.
